Snared
If I be snared by the enemy
Let me be snared doing what is right in God’s sight
Lucifer music leader
Musical instruments were incorporated into Lucifer when he was created…
Ezekiel 28:11-19
Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets (tambourines) and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
in the face of evil
How can you look at yourself in the mirror, or your wife and kids in the eyes and do nothing in the face of evil?
like a flood
Isaiah 15:19
…When the enemy comes in like a flood
Job 1:14-19
A messenger came to Job and said, “The oxen were plowing and the donkeys were grazing nearby, and the Sabeans attacked and made off with them. They put the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!”
While he was still speaking, another messenger came and said, “The fire of God fell from the heavens and burned up the sheep and the servants, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!”
While he was still speaking, another messenger came and said, “The Chaldeans formed three raiding parties and swept down on your camels and made off with them. They put the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!”
While he was still speaking, yet another messenger came and said, “Your sons and daughters were feasting and drinking wine at the oldest brother’s house, when suddenly a mighty wind swept in from the desert and struck the four corners of the house. It collapsed on them and they are dead, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!”
brother against brother
And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death
Matthew 10:21
Will the private statements we make on the phone, facebook, email, texts, etc be used against us to pit our own family and friends against us?
Nations get the leaders they deserve
The choice is between Jeraboam or Rehaboam, which boam (bum) do you want?
how can they hear without a preacher?
Some pastors are afraid if they preach about the return of Messiah that they may loose some of their flocks…
If they had been preaching the entirety of scripture in the first place, then their flocks would have been made up of people anticipating Messiah’s return…
If you don’t protect the sheep from the wolves, you are going to loose them anyway…
warn or indoctrinate?
Does distopian fiction such as George Orwell’s 1984 and Animal Farm and Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and Suzane Collins Hunger Games serve to warn us about a totalitarian future, or does it romanticize it, implant concepts of inevitability in our minds, and serve as a roadmap to those who believe we would actually be better off in such a society?
